Those are the scores of six of Sunday afternoon’s pro games.
Four others had double digit margins. (Technically that’s three daylight games, Pats vs. Bucs was played at night in London.) I’m not including Sunday or Monday night games. (Obviously, since this will be posted before kickoff of both.)

This morning’s C-J listed local area pigskinners on NFL rosters as training camps open. Of course not all will make it through the final cut.
(At this point, I was going to be pissy and name some names of guys who will probably be back in town before kickoff, looking for a job. But, hey, hope [...]
